Everton have been having a topsy-turvy time lately. They've won once, drawn twice, and lost twice in their last five matches. Their games have been lively, with three of those recent matches seeing four or more total goals, so it's a team that can both score and concede. They haven't been consistent, but they have shown they can win.

Coventry are the away team, but we have no recent results to look at for them - it's a blank page. Because of that, and because Everton are at least a known quantity playing at home, this match looks likely to go Everton's way. It could be close, but Everton should have the edge. Everton will win.
